Discover how the brain works & make art inspired by it!
Add to Locker

How does your brain construct your lived reality? Why do we perceive the world in the

ways that we do? In this hybrid psychology, neuroscience, and art camp, discover how

the human brain works and make art inspired by it! Importantly, no previous experience

in either art or psychology is required! Learn the basics of perception – how the body’s

senses (sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste) send information to specialized parts of

the brain, and how that information is processed to create conscious experience. Use

what we’ve learned about our sensory systems to create artworks that reflect our own

unique, individual perception of the world. Explore art materials, techniques, and

examples from professional artists that allow us to creatively interpret and apply

information from the brain sciences. Each day come together to discuss creative

problem solving, give constructive artwork feedback, and share brain-based creations.
